Longa-Mavinga National Park

Longa-Mavinga National Park encompasses 46,076 square kilometers of open woodlands, savannas, and miombo forests between the Cuando and Kavango Rivers.

The establishment of the park in 2011 marked a significant step in Angola's post-civil war recovery, addressing conservation needs after decades of conflict.

Local communities participate in conservation efforts through employment programs and sustainable resource management initiatives within the park boundaries.

Visitors should plan trips between May and October during the dry season, considering infrastructure limitations and ongoing landmine clearance operations.

The park forms part of Africa's largest conservation area, the Kavango-Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area, connecting protected regions across multiple nations.
